MARUHA'S BAR HOKKAIDO - UENO, JAPAN

My gals finished their shopping in Ueno and picked me up where I was parked for several hours.  They wanted dinner before taking the rail back to our hotel.  We walked around and for some reason walked into this place which was completely filled with locals enjoying food, beer and cigarettes.  Most people in the restaurant were smoking but the filtration system was so good that you barely saw or smelled the smoke.  I ordered a cold beer because they did not offer wine and we began ordering which turned out to be some pretty great food.  We were the only tourists or non-Japanese people in the place and we felt comfortable as at home.  When each dish arrived we dug in and found everything to be delicious.  Sashimi was super fresh, the Mackerel was delicious and the Calamari with Vegetables was perfect.  After all the seafood we decided to order Yakiniku which didn't rate compared to the seafood.  Really liked this place and would definitely go back again.

PARKERS LIGHTHOUSE - LONG BEACH, CA


We booked a lunch for my Mom at Parkers Lighthouse in Long Beach but she was not feeling well and had to go to the hospital.  Had lunch with my Sister, Brother, Wife and Daughter and then we all went to the Long Beach Veterans Hospital where my Mom was admitted.  Love the food here.  The Shrimp and Lobster Taquitos are some of the best I have ever tasted.  I could honesty eat four servings of just these and be happy.  I had the Seafood Cobb Salad with Crab and Shrimp.  It was delicious!  Perfectly chilled and fresh with lots of crab.  Also enjoyed the Steamed Clams and Calamari.  My Brother LOVES the Garlic Cheese Bread and believe me it is good.  Everything was good here once again and the service was excellent!

Loved lunch at the 604 Clubhouse at Leilehua Golf Course.  While I did not golf, I did enjoy the food here.  Loved the Ahi Club Sandwich which was one of the best on Oahu.  Large piece of perfectly cooked fresh Ahi with Lettuce, Tomato, Onion and Bacon on a delicious buttered bun.  Also liked the Ahi Tataki and Calamari with Peppers.  The Peppers in the Calamari made this better than most places and the only thing I would change is the dipping sauce.  Think it was just mayonnaise.  I actually poured Tabasco on my plate and dipped the Calamari in it. Good service too so I definitely will come back.
